[gardeners] Spring in February?

I've got Blue Pearl crocus and large yellow crocus blooming! 
What a shock that was to see.  There are hyacinths that will be 
blooming within the week and tulips that are about 5 inches high, 
neither of which is in a protected area.  The buds on the little leaf 
lindens we planted last year are quite swollen (which scares the 
dickens out of me) and the first dandelion bloomed today.  About 1/2 
of my perennials have started growing.

Do you folks have this going on?  I'm worried about losing my trees 
to a hard freeze.  This activity is at least 3 weeks early for my 
region.
